Imagine walking or biking through off-road woodland trails from Strawberry Banke in Portsmouth, New Hampshire to Bug Light Park on Casco Bay in South Portland. This is the vision of the Eastern Trail Alliance (ETA).
Ultimately, the Eastern Trail will be a mostly off-road greenway, free from noise and air pollution, where Maine families and visitors of all skill levels will enjoy Maine's quiet, natural beauty. The trail will follow the corridor of the nearly forgotten, historic Eastern Railroad, which was the first rail line connecting Portland with Boston.
